It’s like stepping back in time to visit a town, farm, colliery village and old hall and getting to experience what it was like to live in those places from about 1910 onwards. There are staff who take on the roles of various locals that really bring this place to life.  
This picture is from the town where you can explore a bank, shops, pub, dentists and lots of other things as well as ride in traditional vehicles of the time. Such a brilliant experience.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6079441/bdfb1ea6-98e4-4fa1-bd96-45268ac3058a.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high)
